Spreadsheets


In this post you will be informed about spreadsheets, and how to create a chart and insert an image in there. You will also learn about the “basic vocabulary”, about formulas and functions, the difference between them and how to use them. Spreadsheets are normally used to analyze and organize numbers, financial data, and other information. For example: solving a mathematical problem, calculating your earnings, or others things. They are frequently used in the fields of business and accounting. Now that these concepts are clear, let´s begin.  


The basics:
To create a Google Spreadsheet, the first step is open Google Drive and then click on the blue button: “New”. Now, different options would appear, and you must click on Google sheets. Automatically Google opens a new website and this would be your spreadsheet. It is advisable that you put a titel for your spreadsheets. Now you can start writing data in your document. When you write something Google Drive automatically saves it, so don't worry!


Basic vocabulary:



You can insert many things in a cell, like numbers (appear on the left), and words (appear on the right). You can also change the color, the size of the text, the font, and other things.

How to create a chart:
Firstly you need to select the data, that you are going to use. Then you click on insert and then on chart. Next it would appear the chart menu, where you can choose the style that you want to use, and also you can customise your chart as you like. Finally you click on the blue insert button and if you want, you can move it and put it where you want or you can select the size that you prefer.

How to insert an image:
First you click on the “insert” button, that is located on the toolbar and then you click on image. Now it would we appear six differents options: Upload, Take a snapshot, By URL, Your albums, Google Drive and Search. When you already chose your option you click on insert and then you can select the size from the image or the place in which you will put it.

Formulas:
We use a formulas to perform calculations. The first step is to enter the equal sign (=). Then you click on the first cell you need for the calculation. Then insert the sign, taking in mind what you want to calculate. If you want to subtract, you must click on the minus sign (-). If you want to add you click on the plus sign (+). If you want to divide you click on the forward slash (/=Shift+7). If you want to multiply you click on the asterisk (*=Shift++). Finally you select the other cell that you need for the calculation and you click on the enter button.

Functions:
A function is a programmed formula that carries out specific calculations in the cell in which it is located. The first step is enter the equal sign (=). Then you have to insert the function you need. Next you open brackets (), and then you select the first cell. Next you put the ; sign, if you want only two cells, and : sign if you want a range. Next you close brackets, and after that you click enter.

How to use iframes in your post?

What is an Iframe? An Iframe is like a "Window" in another platform, there you can embed everything you want, for example a video. What an Iframe makes, is that the people (who´s watching the video) don´t need to go to another platform to see it, they can stay at there.

Now  I am going to explain you, how to insert a video using Iframes:
The first thing that you must do is access to YouTube and search the video that you want to show on your post. Then you must click on the "Share" button, it is under the video clip.


When you click on this button, there will appear three options: "Share", "Embed" and "Email". You have to click on Embed. It will appear an "Iframe Code" that works for an Iframe and you must copy it.


Finally you have to go to Blogger and create a new post. You must click on the HTML button, which is next to the Composer button. It would appear a long text, but it is not very important. Go to the end of that long text and paste the code.


When you click on the Compose button again, the video will appear in form of Iframe.

How do you use Iframes in your posts?

               


Steps to insert an iframe from a video in a post:

 1. Fetch the video you want to insert in your post.
  
 2. Click on share.


   
 3. Then click on embed.
 4. Copy the iframe code.
 5. Go to the post and click on the option HTML.
 6. Paste the iframe code there.
 7. Go back to write and the video will already be there, just like this:

How to use Iframes in a Post



The first thing that you have to do is go to Youtoube.
Next, you are going to choose a video that you want to show in your post.
For example, I am going to use the song "Roar" from Katy Perry.

When you select the video,you are going to click the button "Share". It is under the subscription button of the Youtube Channel. 


Now, three new options will appear. You have to click in "Embed". It is located in the middle of that three options.

An "Iframe code" is going to appear. For you to know, the violet marked square contains the "Iframe code".
The next thing you have to do, is to copy that code.
You are going back to your post, and click on the "HTML" button. (It is next to the "Compose" button, on the left side of the toolbar.)
If you click there, a large text (it is better to call that text "codes") is going to appear. Well, if you did not write to much in your post, before putting the Iframe, it is not going to be large.
Now, you have to paste the "Iframe code" at the bottom of the "HTML" section. (Specifically, where there is a free space).
Now go back to the "Compose" section, and (if you did it right) a video is going to appear there.




And that's how you use Iframes in a post.


How to use Iframes?



But what is an Iframe?
An Iframe is a window from another platform like Youtube. You have to embed an Iframe (in this case in your post). You can embed whatever you like, like a video, soundcloud, etc.
How to use Iframes in your posts? I will show that to you.
First you have to go to Youtube and search the video you want to put in your post. Then you have to go to share below the video.


After you clicked share, you will have the option to embed. When you clicked embed you have to copy the link.


Then, when you already copied the link, you have to paste it in the section HTML of your post.



When you finally did this, you achieved putting an Iframe in your post.

How to use Iframes

First of all. What is an Iframe?






Once the concept of "Iframe" is clear, I'm going to start explaining you how to embed a video in your post. For this, I'm going to choose a random video, like this one:





Steps to embed a random video in your post:

1. Search in Youtube the video you want to show in your post. Once you got it, you have to click on the option "Share" below the video.






2. When you clicked there, three new option will appear: "Share", "Embed" and "Email". What you have to do, is to click in "Embed". If you click there, an Iframe code will appear.







Now, as you can see in the image above, the Iframe code is highlighted in blue. You need to copy the Iframe code, for the next step.


3. You will go back to your post. When you are there, you will click on the button "HTML", which is next to "Compose". This two buttons are on the Toolbar. If you click there, a strange text is going to appear. The only thing that you have to do, is to scroll up to the end of this strange text. You will click in a free space, and paste the Iframe code there.










As you can see on the image, the Iframe code is highlighted in blue, and is at the end.




4. Go back to "Compose" and the video you wanted to show on your post will appear there!







And that's how you embed a video with Iframes in a post.
